FLASHPOINT for Mar 21, 2007

Wednesday, March 21, 2007 | 7:25 a.m.

The problem with progressive bloggers is they leave no bad deed - as they see it - unpunished. Be it Democrats vacillating on Iraq or Nevada's state party consorting with the dreaded Fox, these folks will take their mouses and scare the bejesus out of the donkeys while the elephants chortle away. The latest, as Paul Kane of The Washington Post reports, is the Senate Democratic Policy Committee inviting a trio of bloggers to lunch. Kane reports that the head of the Senate Democrats, Harry Reid, hired a staffer two years ago whose sole assignment was to deal with progressive bloggers. Reid is a great example. These folks loved him for a while but then went south over the Fox debacle. And still the invite comes: Let's do lunch.
